The difficult truth is that many people don’t last on this diet because they didn’t start out with a good plan. The number one thing you need to have in place is a clear understanding of why you want to do this, a powerful vision of you attaining your goal, plus some solid support from your friends and family.

Remember, the lemonade diet is not really a ‘diet’ … it’s a cleanse. That said here are some warnings & helpful tips.

You should read the Master Cleanse Secrets book. If you have special needs, diabetic or hypo/hyperglycemic issues, then you want to be fully informed. Consult your doctor with your plans.

1. Salt water flushes mobilizes toxins and encourages elimination. Do you get what I mean? Stay NEAR a bathroom for an hour or so afterwards until you are quite finished. If you don’t, you will regret it
2. If you feel the need to flatulate after having drank the laxative tea (Smooth Move) or salt water flush, DON’T. It’s not gas
3. The tea works very well. Be near a bathroom in the morning. If you drink it in the morning, be prepared to be near a bathroom
4. Use only the best Organic Grade B Maple Syrup you can find. I shop for mine at a local organic whole foods store
5. Buy a lemon/citrus juicer. Conventional thinking is that you can juice 2 or 3 lemons for the juice you will need. It’s more like 10 and you will get tired. A few bucks spent will save you much effort. Drink the pulp!
6. Fresh lemonade tastes best
7. Pre-measure your lemonade. You WILL start drinking more of it and you WILL start to crave it
8. Consider starting a blog to journal your experience. This can be therapeutic
9. Take before and after photos, and remember to weigh yourself. You may not like to do that, however if you want to make meaningful change in your life, you MUST be prepared to observe whether it’s working or not
10. You *may* develop a cold
11. EASE OFF THE CLEASE! Digging into the fried chicken will sicken you
12. A lot of weight loss will be water, which will return. Don’t be upset about this. Try to avoid salt which can lead to water retention
13. BEFORE you start the cleanse, have a plan for healthy eating afterwards. You have a fresh start … use it.
14. This is not a diet, but an accelerated program to quickly lose some weight and detoxify.

The Lemonade Diet

Technorati Tags: cayenne pepper diet, Lemon Juice, lemonade cleanse, Lemonade Diet, the lemonade diet

The Cayenne, is a red, hot chili pepper used to flavor dishes and also used in medicine. It takes it’s name from the city of Cayenne in French Guiana.

Cayenne pepper contains a resin-like substance known as capsaicin. This chemical relieves pain and itching by affecting sensory nerves. It causes neurotransmitters to release from nerves, meaning pains signals can no longer be sent. The effect is temporary. It finds it’s use in medicine as a vasodilator (causes your blood vessels to open). It’s commonly used as a thermogenic and to improve blood circulation.

Mucus is one of the body’s defenses against irritation and inflammation. When too much mucus settles in any one area of your body, illness is the natural outcome. In the case of the Master Cleanse or Cayenne Pepper Diet, cayenne pepper and lemon juice is used to break up this mucous and acts as a cleanser for the digestive, respiratory, and circulatory systems.

You can find organic lemons at quality supermarkets or at your green grocer. Consider buying a quality juicer or an attachment for your KitchenAid mixer, if you have one. Depending upon the size of the lemon, you can get 1/4 cup of juice from a good lemon.

Created by Stanley Burroughs, a man dedicated to alternative health options, the master cleanse was mentioned in his first book, Healing for the Age of Enlightenment. In 1976, Burroughs dedicated a book entirely to the detox method called The Master Cleanser.

This book is still available today and although only 50 pages (it sells for $6. 50), it gives complete details on exactly what you need to do before, during and after going on the master cleanse.

Basically, you do not eat any solid foods for 10 days. Instead you drink a mixture of the juice of a half a lemon, 2 tablespoons of grade B maple syrup and 1/10th teaspoon of cayenne pepper mixed in 8 ounces of water. If you don’t like maple syrup, you can substitute agave. You drink this mixture 6 to 12 times a day.

With the main ingredients listed above, it wasn’t long before this procedure become better known as the lemonade diet, the maple syrup diet and even the cayenne pepper diet. The combination of lemon juice, maple syrup and pepper may seem frivolous but each item has its own purpose.

The lemon juice provides vitamin C, minerals and improves the pH balance of the body. Maintaining a healthy pH level and keeping the alkaline levels on an even keel helps the body build its immunity system. Unprocessed honey is high in zinc, minerals and manganese and provides some calories during the fast. The cayenne pepper stimulates your metabolism and helps with circulation.

Author Peter Glickman brought the master cleanse back into the public eye in 2005 with his book Lose Weight, Have More Energy and Be Happier in 10 Days. More recently, popular singer and entertainer Beyonce used the master cleanse to lose weight for her role in the movie Dream Girls. Reportedly Beyonce went on the plan for 14 days and lost 22 pounds.

It is important to read The Master Cleanser before starting this program. There is vital information that you must follow to protect your health during this fast as well as what you need to do to prepare for it before you start. Glickman’s book lists the 12 most common reasons that people have problems completing the fast and what you can do to avoid them. It also features people who have been successful at losing weight with the infamous lemon cleanse.

So why should you bother with the Cayenne Pepper Diet?

There are two main reasons. First, it works. Period. People are getting fantastic results from the Cayenne Pepper Diet and there are thousands of testimonials of dedicated users who are living proof of the effectiveness of this cleanse. In fact, Beyonce Knowles is known to have used it to lose 20lbs in a very short period of time for her role in Dream Girls. But of course, Beyonce isn’t the only person who can lose 1-2 pounds each day during the duration of the cleanse.

Second, it works fast. In contrast to other diets and fitness programs, the typical person on the Cayenne Pepper Diet will only spend 10 days on it, unlike other diets that will last for months or indefinitely. Considering that the program lasts just 10 days, you only need a short term focus of will power to get through it. Most diets fail because of boredom and plateaus experienced weeks into the programs.

What can you expect?

The positive results are a quick weight loss, along with the health benefits of flushing out your system – which is what the Cayenne Pepper Diet is really designed to do. 60 years ago,  the cleanse was first designed for people suffering bad health because of toxic waste building up inside them. Today we are in much more desperate need because of processed food and toxic environment. We should be using the cayenne pepper diet every once in a while. When you flush out your body with the Cayenne Pepper Diet, the waste you eliminate will be abnormal. The smell, color, and texture of the waste that comes out of your body shocks some people, so you should be prepared.

There are some negative challenges you will have to overcome. You will likely experience hunger, aches, and irritability. Most people give up because of hunger. Putting solid food aside for a couple days and only drinking liquids is harder then most people think. Even though the cravings for whole foods can be difficult they do subside after a few days on the Cayenne Pepper Diet. You may also experience aches and soreness, which can be alleviated somewhat by drinking lots of water.

Before beginning the cleanse, let the people in your life know what you are going to do. Your support system will be important when you feel weak, irritable, and want to give up.

There’s more to succeeding at the Cayenne Pepper Diet than I can cover in this small article. If you are serious about trying the cleanse and want to be one of the people who does make it through he whole 10 days, then what I want you to do now is visit Master Cleanse where there is a good book that is the most complete guide available for helping you get through the Cayenne Pepper Diet.
